What's Gonna Happen Today? July 31th 2006
Dear Diary,Today, I had to babysit the next door neighbours. They are Nikki and Nikolas. I don't really like to babysit, but i get some money for it and they like me babysitting them. so i do it anyways. and tonight, after i finish, i get to go to the Summer Masquerade. The Twins' brother is going to be home today. He's a pain to handle. a bigger pain than both the twins combined. i'd better be off then. i shall write later if i have the time to.
Farewell, Lily~ As Lily pulled on a pair of socks she thought of her babysitting adventures she would have today. she turned out her light and ran down the stairs towards the door. she kissed her mom and went out the door with a can of that macoroni that is in weird shapes and stuff. she closed the door and locked it as she walked towards the house next door. the twins had their hands on the window and large happy smiles on their face. Lily giggled to herself and thought, 'tonight, is going to be a good night.'
she approached the house with a bounce in her step. she reached her hand out to ring the door bell but the door opened before she even rung the doorbell. Aaron, the twins' older brother who's the same age as Lily had opened the door. "hm? oh. Hello." she said. He shrugged as two little heads with light brown hair came out from about the height of Aaron's waist but not taller. Lily kneeled down and smiled at the two. Nikki reached out a hand and rubbed Lily's hair. Nikolas giggled. and Nikki stopped rubbing Lily's hair. The twins each grabbed one hand of Lily's and pulled her in. she walked in bending down a little. Aaron put his hands in his pocket and walked back to the couch. He plopped down. the twins' and Aaron's parents came and thanked Lily for coming on such short notice. she nodded and they kissed the twins and walked to the door. they waved and closed the door, locking it behind them. "What are we doing today, Lily?" Nikki and Nikolas said together as if they were one. "Well, it's near dinner time. so... do you guys want to eat something before we play? so we won't have to stop in the middle..." Lily said. "What do we have to eat today?" Nikki and Nikolas said together again. "I brought some pasta in odd shapes. it's in tomato sauce." Lily said taking out a tin of the pasta from the messanger bag she had carried into the house. "Yay! PASTA!" Nikki and Nikolas say with smiles as they hug onto Lily's leg. Lily smiled as she lifted the twins, one in each arm. she walked them into the kitchen as they break out in laughter. Lily sets them sitting on the counter. They sit there holding hands and swinging their legs a little bit. Lily takes out the can opener and sets it on the other counter away from the twins. she takes the tins out of her bag and sets them on the same counter she set the opener of cans. she stuck her head out of the kitchen and looked at Aaron watching the anime, 'Loveless'. "Do you want to have some pasta in tomato sauce?" Lily said as she looked at him from the kitchen. "um... sure. whatever." he said with a tired lazy look. he turned his head back to the telelvision, which was playing 'Loveless', fansubbed on DVD he burned on it. Lily went back into the kitchen and walked back to the counter with the tins of pasta. she opened the tins and put the can opener back on the table. she kneeled down and opened the cupboard under the counter and took out a large pot out of it. she poured the tins of pasta into the pot. she leaves the tins on the counter as she reached for the stirring spoon. Nikki was close to it so she grabbed it and handed it to Lily. Lily smiled and took the spoon from Nikki's little hand. she put the pot on the stove and turned on the stove. "Be careful Lily." Nikolas said as he and his sister jumped off the counter together. "yes yes Nikolas." she said with a nod and a smile. "Why don't you two go bother Aaron while I cook the Pasta." "okay! okay!" the twins say in unison. they run over to the couch Aaron is sitting on and bounce onto it with their heads landing on his lap. "Hi Brother!" they say together once again to their older brother. they giggled as they turned side to side a little bit on their brother's lap.
"what now?" he said with a scowl. the twins got scared and they rolled and hit the floor. they stood up together and ran to Lily screaming for help. The Twins ran into the Kitchen as they approached Lily. she put the pot of hot Pasta on a table cloth and kneeled down as the little boy and girl ran into her arms with tears down their soft little faces. "what's wrong little ones?" she said hugging onto them. "Big Brother Is SCARYY!!!" they said in unison again. "There, there young ones. the pasta is ready. Why don't you go set the dining table and wait til i put it in bowls for you guys?"Lily said looking at them and patting their heads with her oven mitted hands. The twins wiped their tears. nodded. and ran off to get forks. they opened the cupboard and took two forks. they were both metal and one had a rabbit head on the end and the other one had a kitty head at the end. they ran over to the dining table and sat down with their forks in one hand. Lily walked over to the kitchen edge. she peered out and looked at Aaron. He was watching 'Loveless' still... "pasta's ready, Aaron"she said with a bowl of pasta in her hands. he sighed and got up. he walked to the fork cupboard and took out a plain metal fork. he went and sat down at the table next to Nikolas. the twins put their forks down and hugged each other, quivering. Lily brought two bowls of pasta in the plastic bowls, not the ones where you can only use once, the ones you can use for years without them breaking if you're careful kind. she put one down in from of each twin. the twins stopped hugging each other and put their hands together for a grace. Aaron looked at them oddly and he also did a grace. Lily came with 2 more bowls of pasta, in plastic bowls. she placed one in front of Aaron and one in front of the empty seat. she sat down and said grace. Nikki handed her a fork. Nikki had taken one without anyone seeing for Lily. "Thank you, Nikki." Lily said as she smiled at the young girl. Aaron was eating his food in silence and slowly with a neat bite every time. almost always the same time. Lily ate her pasta without getting any one herself. the twins on the other hand got some tomato sauce all over their clothes and faces... they hadn't yet gotten the hang of using a fork. it was a good thing their clothes were red coloured and not white... Lily giggled at the twins' mess. she lifted Nikki from under the young girl's arms, away from Lily's yellow polo, wich in fact, stains easily. "come on Messy Nikki" she said as she smiled at Nikki. she looked at Aaron and Nikolas. Nikolas was on his knees facing her and Nikki in a sad, 'i-feel-left-out' look. but Lily could only carry so many little children without staining herself. "Aaron, carry Nikolas into the upstairs washroom. and don't stain yourself. it's hard enough without you being messy." she added. he shrugged and carried the little Nikolas like Lily did with Nikki. Lily walked up the stairs with Nikki in her hands and Aaron followed her up as Nikolas glared at him. Nikolas was a bit scared and annoyed at his older brother for being a big scary Meanie head. While Nikki giggled as Nikolas squirmed in Aarons arms as he walked up. aaron fell back down 3 stairs and landed on some coushins that have been left there since the twins were playing. Nikolas had fallen on top of Aaron and Aaron had fallen on the pillows. he had a slight bump on his head and a stain on his shirt. Nikolas was still irritated at his brother and Lily didn't hear Aaron fall, so she continued to walk. Nikolas got up and stuck his tounge out at his older brother. Then he ran up the stairs behind Lily. "what happened to Aaron, Nikolas?"she asked the little boy behind her as she entered the upstairs washroom. the one with the tub. Nikolas pointed out the door and there was Aaron, with a tomato sauce stain on his shirt. Lily giggled at the boy's misfortune. Lily put Nikki on the ground and lifted Nikolas and put him next to Nikki. "you two need a bath. now, take off your clothes while i go get your pajamas. okay?"she said with a giggle and a smile as the twins odded their heads. Lily stepped out of the bathroom and into the twins' bedroom. it had really light grey walls, it almost looked white. she noticed their beds. one one of them, there was Nikki and on the other it had Nikolas on it. only Nikki's bed looked sleeped in. it was alright. she picked up the purple nightgown with butterflies on it and the set of blue sleeping clothes, with a button-down shirt and matching pants with butterflies on it too. she walked back to the washroom slowly, thinking, 'today, is gonna be good' as she entered the washroom, she saw Nikki and Nikolas wrapped in one towel. the both were smiling as Aaron sat on the edge of the tub looking not at Lily. "you're gonna have to move if i'm supposed to turn the water on."she said as she put the clothes in her hand on top of the lid for the toilet. as he stood up from the tub edge and shifted over to the counter and jumped onto as he sat with his legs crossed. Lily turned on the water to the warmest and put her hand under the water. the twins fidgited in the large towel. the water was hot so Lily plugged the drain. the water was raising very slowly in the tub. "you two ready?"she asked the two in the towel "YES MA'AM!" They said.

They dropped the towel onto the ground and slid into the tub of hot water. it was more warm than it should be, because Lily knew the water would turn cold. they slid in and sat there in the pool. Lily took two Shower caps from the drawer under the sink and put one on Nikki's head and one on Nikolas' head. the two laughed and clapped their little hands together. the water was just arriving the midpoint and Lily turned the water off. it was already up to the twins' chest and so, she didn't want them to be in danger. and she didn't want to wipe up if any water goes out of the tub. Nikki got a little bit of water in her hands and put it on Nikolas's shoulder. he giggled as Lily reached and grabbed the bubble bath at the corner of the tub edge. Lily poured in a fair amount and swished her hand around in the water, causing the bubble bath to foam. the bubble bath smelled absolutely delightful. The twins giggled at the sight of the bubbles. Aaron, still sitting there with a stained shirt, sat there silently. Lily had almost forgotten he was there. Lily walked to the sink and washed her hand of the bubbly goodness now surrounding the twins. she picked up the towel off the floor and wiped her hands. she hung it back on the rack as the twins played in the tub. the bubbles and the water together was 2/3 of the tub. Lily looked over at Aaron and said "You should go change that shirt. can you go wash the twins' stained clothes and your own shirt? can you do that?" she smiled at the boy as she kneeled next to the tub facing the twins with a bath sponge in her hand. she dipped it in the water and it got soapy and such. she turned nikki over to her back was facing Lily and Lily started to wash Nikki's back. the young girl laughed as the bath sponge rubbed across her back with the warm soapy water. Aaron shrugged and picked up the dirty clothes of the twins that got stained and walked off. Nikolas laughed at the sight of Nikki getting her back washed and laughing. Lily scooted over to Nikolas and she turned him around with his small back towards her. she rubbed his back with the sponge and he started giggling at the feeling of it on his back.
A few moments later, Aaron was heard going up the stairs. Lily didn't bother to look at him in case he didn't have a shirt because he didn't take one down. Aaron really wasn't wearing a shirt and he walked into his room. his room had really light grey walls. it was a plain room. with a bed, a desk and some other things. it was a nice simple room still. the twins' hands started to turn all pruney, so Lily thought it was time for them to get out. the twins sat there smiling as Lily reached for the plug stopping the water from going down the drain. the sun was setting outside the washroom window. As the water drained from the tub, the twins sat there with some of the foam bubbles on them. Lily reached for the fauchet and she turned on the water, but letting the water go through the fauchet. she sprayed the twins' small bodies with the water going through the fauchet and the foam washed off. the twins giggled as the last of the bubbles washed off them. They stepped out of the tub onto the floor towel and Lily wrapped them in individual towels. they wiped themselves dry as Lily got them their clothes. they got dressed as lily hung back the towles back on the rack. "we're done Lily~" they said in unison. Lily looked at them and they were ready. "i guess you are ready." she said with a smile as she walked them out of the washroom and turned off the lights. she closed the door and looked into the plain room of Aaron's. "Aaron! are you done yet?" She spoke into his room. he was still searching for a shirt that was clean. his sleeping clothes were not washed yet so he hadn't a sleeping shirt. then, he got from the bottom of his drawer, a white shirt with black letters on it that wrote, 'Hoops' and under in small red letters, 'air power'. it wasn't an ugly shirt. just sort of an old shirt that had been somewhat worn out from being washed many times. He pulled the shirt over his head and it amazingly still fit him. it looked a bit see through but it was still good. he trotted downstairs to find the twins and Lily sitting on the couch. Lily sat at the edge of one of them. Nikki was leaning against the arm rest and Nikolas was beside Lily and beside Nikki too. he plopped down on the couch, a bit close but a bit far from Lily. his arms were crossed across his chest... Lily had changed the channel to a cartoon, "spongebob squarepants" was just starting at that time. so the twins wanted to watch it and Aaron has to sit through it. Soon, the end song was playing and the twins were laughing in delight. They wanted to play video games next. and they occupied the TV, again... so Aaron couldn't use it to watch anime. they were going to play Mario Party. they had four controllers so aaron could play too. they turned it on and the playstation logo came up on the screen. and the Mario Party theme with balloons and all. then they came to the part where you have to use the controller. "which Party?"Lily asked. she had the player one controller. "Bowser Party!" the twins said in unison again. "okay~"Lily said as she chose the bowser party and hit the a button. the screen went into the box and into the bowser party. Nikki was Peach, Nikolas was Mario, Lily was Yoshi and Aaron was the Daisy because he didn't like the other characters. they had to choose who was first, so the dice appeared above their heads and they all clicked the A button. Nikki was first, Lily was second, Aaron was third and Nikolas was last. Nikki rolled her die and walked aht amount. they all took their turns and then came to a game. this continued for another 45 turns and it was getting to the time the twins' and Aaron's parents were getting home. the game ended and Lily turned the game consule off and when she looked back she saw the twins sleeping and Aaron hugging his legs close to him. Lily grabbed a blanket from the large arm chair and put it around the two twins. they looked at peace when they were sleeping... Then, the doorbell rang. Aaron walked to the door and opened it. Lily was still putting the blanket on the small children as the parents of the three came into the house. The mother of the three gave Lily her pay and a but more for having Aaron around and then, Lily was off on her way. Lily skipped happily down the road as she headed for the Summer Masquerade. it was told it was ending today. she really wanted to help find the culprit of the kidnapping. After passing a few streetlights, she arrived at the Masquerade. everyone was searching for clues at the gypsy camp. she puts on her greenish coloured mask and walks through the crowd of people. she looks here and there for clues. many people seemed to find some clues like marbles or feathers. who could the kidnapper be? she thought as she looked about some more. Lily sees the gypsy lady come out of the candy tent. she continued to walk as she searched for a clue. some people found a feather, or a marble, or a peice of cloth, or some blood! she continues to watch for clues to help around for the search for the kidnapper. She saw all the people leaving. what time was it? it was almost time for sun-up and her parents knew she was going to be late to get home because she went to the summer masquerade. when she saw the people starting to leave, she stood up and stretched. as the kidnapper was watching her from afar, he saw he stretching near a tree. she yawned and started to walk back the path she came from.

The Kidnapper, is Following Me?!
Part 1 - What?! Quote: 07.31.06
The Summer Masquerade has ended, and the suspect for the capture of the little gypsy girl was revealed. You leave to go back home, slightly tired from the festivities, when you hear very light footsteps behind you. You turn around, only to see the Herald respopnsible for the kidnapping standing behind you with his hands in his pockets, staring at you expectantly.
This is a very specific prompt. Please read about his history and then respond. What do you do? Why is he following you? What makes him decide to ultimately stay with you? As Lily was walking home from the Summer Masquerade, she thought of the fun times she had there at the event. she met some people and she got some candy too... it was a warm summer dawn today. Lily walked along the path lined with bushes and lit slightly dim by small lamps that seemed to be coming from the row of bushes. she heard a rustling sound... she turned around quickly. no one. she turned back around with one hand holding her other elbow. A hand reached out and placed itself on Lily's shoulder. She turns around. "huh?" she says as she looks at the man who seems about his mid-twenties. she didn't know who this man was. she knows she saw him before though. "who're you?" she askes the man. 'how could she forget who i am?!' the man thinks. then, it hit her. "y- y- y- YOU'RE THE KIDNAPPER!" she says with a jabbing finger towards him. she falls back and into a 'sitting-on-the-floor-with-her-hands-supporting-her-from-behind' pose. "yea. you remember... and i didn't 'kidnap' the child." he said with his hands still in his pockets and his head facing the side but still eyeing Lily. he reached out a hand to help her up. she waited a while to make sure he was trying to help her or not. wit his hand not moving he said, "come on, you can't sit there all night." with his hand still reaching out to help Lily up, he looked at her with dreamy eyes. "I don't need the help of a Kidnapper." she said as she smacked away his hand with the back of her hand. she returned his dreamy eyed look with a glare. He blinked and stood up properly again and put his hand back into his pocket. she stands up and wipes the dust off the rear part of her long black pants. "so, why're you following me? i don't beleive you just happened to take the same path as i do." she said somewhat annoyed at the Herald, and with her arms crossed. "i need a guardian. so i followed you." the Herald said looking at her in the eye. "then... why me?" she said "you were one of the last people who left the event." he said. "so...? there were many people who left the event at the end. you could have picked them, couldn't you?" she said.
"you seemed more stable and not to break down under pressure as much." he said.
"so... what do you me to do? i'm still only young. so i might not be a good guardian. you can go to another person if you want." she said, as she put her hands behind her, hand in hand, and as she took a step forward as she spoke this statement. "oh, I'm Lily. what's your name?" she said remembering she hadn't introduced herself yet.
"my name? Kemuri. nice to meet you Miss Lily. and i have decided you are going to be my guardian. and i don't go back on my word." He said with a small bow. truth is, he just doesn't want to go back to the event in case everyone was gone and he didn't have a guardian... so he had to keep with this young lady whose name is Lily. "if i'm gonna be your guardian, come on. you need a place to sleep." she said with a sweet smile. it was the first time she had made a smile towards this Herald. she had glared at him because she hadn't really trusted him. he shrugged and took a step closer to the young Lily. she turned back around with her jet black hair blowing a little in the wind. They walked for a while. and then he opened his mouth to speak. but didn't. he had nothing to say. all he did was smile silently as he walked behind her. they slowly walked in the darkness of the night. the row of bushes seemed to grow longer and longer, never stopping.
at last, they came to a nice looking house. the window of the living room was lit and the television was turned to a chinese channel. Lily then had to think of a plan of how to get Kemuri up to her room without her parents knowing. then, she thought of something!

Part 2 - Arrived Safely?
Lily's plan was for him to climb the tree to her room. so she signalled for him to come to the back, where the attic window was. she asked him in a whisper, "can you climb this tree and wait there for a moment?" he nodded his head and jumped up onto a branch where he could reach the window. Lily ran off and rang the doorbel of the house. "i'm back~" Lily said to her family as she entered the house. she rushed upstairs to her room and to the window where Kemuri was. she opened the window to let him in. he crawled in through the window and into her room. he tripped and fell on top of Lily. he pushed himself from the grond so he was on his hands and knees. he smiled and winked at her sneakish-ly. "get off of me, will ya?!" she said as she pushed him off of her and used her arms to push forward so she escaped going out head-first. he snickered and stood up. she sat on a floor pillow and poured 2 cups of tea. she sipped one of them while watching Kemuri as he looked around her room for if it was proper for him to live there or not. "Just GO to the purple bed beside the pink one and stay there!" she said angrily, pointing to the purple bed, that her sister used to sleep in. "i'm going to take a shower. if you're hungry, there's a boxed lunch under the coffee table. theres some warm tea on the table from a while ago. you can use the shower after i do. but DON'T say anything and LOCK the door." she said as she took her towel from her rolling chair in front of her computer. she opened the second drawer from the right under the tv and took out some clean undies and walked up the stairs to take her sleeping clothes from her bed. "how long will you be gone?" he said looking at her while laying on his stomach with his elbows on the bed and his hands supporting his head. he swung his feet and looked down at her waking out of the room. "i'll be a little bit. i'll be back though." she said to him with a sweet smile. and she left the room. 'oh i know! i'll go into the washroom and surprise her. no one can resist my well-toned body and abs!' Kemuri opened the first drawer, he saw assorted colors of Polo's that were all striped, and a stack of t-shirts. next, he opened the second drawer, her delicates and such. he was tempted to touch it... but didn't. he closed it and opened the 3rd drawer, it was full of pants. dark colors of them all... he closed that too. he opened the last drawer, and saw an extra towel and socks. all different colored socks... odd... he took off his clothes and put the towel around his waist. he floated down slowly making sure he wasn't seen. he opened the washroom door and went in. there was a shower, a sink, some cabnets, face lotions and stuff. mouth wash, tooth brush, tooth paste, stuff you would find in a normal bath room. in the shower, Lily was showering. she liked to stand in the corner, so about 3/4 of the shower wasn't used. with a towel draped over the edge of the shower. Kemuri snuck into the shower past the curtain and plastic clear door with white frames. Lily was hearing the water, so she didn't hear him enter the shower. he threw the towel out and Lily heard something fall. when she turned around, she saw the Large black wings and hair of the tall herald. he turned his head and said, "oh, you finally notice me? hee hee" he smiled at her but didn't turn around fully. Lily was covering herself with her arms. she panicked in her head for a moment and screamed... she fell to the ground with flat wet hair and was sitting on the floor of the shower. Lily fainted in the shower... Lily had never fainted before...

Part 3 - In The Morning and What Happened at Dawn
When Lily woke up, she found herself in her room. beside her, was Kemuri, ON HER BED, wearing only boxers... they were white with a row of green leaves at the bottom lining it. she was in a large shirt and pants. she had underwear on and her normal pants. that large shirt, it didn't belong to her. but she saw it from somewhere... 'a deep red long sleeved shirt.. hm... where have i seen this before?... oh, right! this must belong to Kemuri.' she thought as her heart raced from the panic. she looked inside her shirt, and she wasn't wearing a bra... her head hurt a little bit. she panicked even more... why wasn't she wearing one? why was Kemuri on her bed? what had happened? the last thing she remembered was that she saw Kemuri in the shower when she was showering. and then blank.
what really happened was that Kemuri seeing Lily fainted in the shower, washed the shampoo from her hair then wiped her dry with a large towel. he didn't want to touch her chest, and her sleeping shirt was a tank top, so he took his red long-sleeved shirt, and put it on her. he liften her to be tummy down on his shoulder and put clean underwear on her and the sleeping pants she had taken into the bathroom. he felt like he was dressing a doll, a rather large doll...
He set her on the counter again. he hung up all the towels and stuff on the rack labeled, towel rack. and he picked up all her dirty clothes and put it in the dirty laundry bin. Lily's head was resting on the mirror for quite some time because Kemuri didn't know how to properly hang the towel without it falling... but he eventually got it. then he opened the door to see if anyone was outside. no one. he opened the door wider and turned off the light. he floated quickly up to the room and closed the door on the attic stairs. Lily had put sign that said, 'sleeping, do not disturb, please!' and it hung down from the door onto the stairs leading to the half layer where there's a washroom for Lily to use.
he set her down on her bed, she subconciously held onto his arm and was just asleep, not in a fainted mode. a sweet sleeping mode. she seemed peace ful. he couldn't grab his pants, and all he had on at the time was his boxers. and he liked just sleeping in his boxers, so he just got onto Lily's bed next to her and fell asleep with one arm being held by the sleeping lily and one arm under his pillow, below his head.
Lily eventually let go of Kemuri's hand during the night. she turned in her sleep and ended up hugging the Herald that she had held the hand of. she was muttering in her sleep. something about blankets and stuff. she felt cold during the night and pulled the blanket up with her eyes still closed and half asleep. she pulled it over Kemuri too, thinking it was still part of her. he was warm too. so he hugged her in his sleep. but, he wanted to... Lily was a lot shorrter than him. so when she curled her feet in, she was about the height of his torso. so she fit from his neck to his waist, with her head included. her head was the same place his head was on, same pillow too. his arms were around her and her arms were tucked in and holding his chest.
they eventually let loose around 7-8 am? and slept on the different pillows. he was still facing her and she was still facing him. in the morning, Lily woke up and saw him next to her. she didn't know what happened the night before. and wasn't sure if she was okay or not. "wake up, Kemuri" she said in a sweet tone of voice. his eyes opened to see Lily angry, still wearing the shirt and pants he had put on her. "good morning, Lily" he said in a sleepy tone. "how is today a good morning!?" she said angrily not shouting in case she wakes her family members up. it was still 10am on a sunday though. "why am i dressed in your shirt? why don't i have a bra on? what happened last night?!" she said angrily again looking at him straight in the eye. he looked at her and said. "oh, you fainted in the washroom yesterday aftr you saw me in the shower with you. so i dressed you and took you back to the room. you fell asleep instead after you finished panicking, and you wouldn't let go of my hand, so i slept in the same bed as you. then you woke up and got angry at me and now we're here."

The Kidnapper, is Following Me?!
Part 4 - The Accused Kemuri rubbed the sleep from his eyes and tryed to calm her down. Lily wouldn't calm down. how could she. she just slept the night with a herald. a kidnapper! this mysterious man of something! She took out a sheet of paper from a drawer in her desk and wrote this on it: Rules.
1// no sleeping in the same bed!
2// no going to the same bed in the middle of the night
3// don't go into the shower when another person is in the bathroom
4// no touch me in a rude way
5// no food on bed
6// if you drop food, don't just leave it there
7// don't just sleep with boxers on
8// no using the door, use window for entry and exit
9// always carry a key with you. window will be closed
10// NO getting drunk in the room he looked over her shoulder to see what she wrote. "why can't we sleep together? we were alright last night... why can't i shower with you? i used to shower with the Fortune teller when i was little." he said while resting his chin on her shoulder. "because that was when you were younger. you are an adult now! you have to act like an adult. you can't act like some teenage pervert!" she said as she gripped his ear tightly. "ai ai ai ai !!" he said silently not to wake anyone up. even though his intentions at the beginning were good."i wanted to.. ai... surprise you." he said sqeemishly. they were good intentions... they just happened to be not what Lily thought was considered 'good'. "what was good about coming into the shower when i was in it taking a shower!?" she said a little less angry but still quite angry. she still didn't see anything good about going into the shower naked along with her. Lily let go of his ear so he could talk. "you get to shower with me then. and then you'd be my guardian." he said calmly. "does it have to be the shower?" she asked. she really didn't want to shower with him. it was annoying and the shower didn't have all that much space."nope~ we just have to do something together. it has to be meaning ful though. and the guardian has to help the Herald. but you're now the official guardian as of last night." he said with a wink. a sneaky smile came across his face and looked at her. Lily was scared now... what did she do during the night? "what did i do to make the deal sealed?" she asked. he said in a calm tone, "you were cold, then pulled a blanket over both of us subconciously..." Lily calmed down. it wasn't anything that big... now, she was his official guardian. she didn't feel any different. maybe a draft from not wearing anything under his shirt, but no, no difference. she took a deep breath and crawled over her bed and walked down the stairs. she went to her drawers and opened the pants drawer. she found a pair of new sleeping pants that were too long for her. she took them out walked up the stairs to where the beds were and threw the pants at him. "wear pants and a shirt while you sleep." she said and she smiled and walked down to her drawers again. she opened the underwear drawer and took out a clean bra and put it under Kemuri's shirt. she put it on properly and walked up to her bed again. she reached to the window sil and took her glasses. she wore them. while she was doing that, Kemuri was already asleep on Lily's bed holding the pants."come on, Kemuri. Wake up... it's already morning!" she said as she shook him lightly. 'oh well. i'll let him sleep.' she said as she walked down to her drawers again and took out a pink striped polo and a pair of black pants and pink socks. she changed into that outfit and folded the clothes she had on, Kemuri's red shirt and sleeping pants. she put them at the end of her bed, not to wake Kemuri up. she smiled at him and pushed some of his navy hair out of his face. she walked down silently and turned on her computer. and that was the end of the large misunderstanding, which was the guardian ceremony thing. Lily knew there was no such ceremony, but she let him off the hook... he seemed to be going through a lot since the event.

In The Town
Rewritten From 'Our Town' Roleplay on August 1st - August 2nd
Met: Lind, Guinevere, Suboshi Kemuri went into town. he was walking down the street on this sunny day. he walked along thinking about something. then a little boy and his guardian came up to him. the little boy seemed interested in his wings. everyone seemed to be aroused by them... his guardian was quite pretty. her name was Suboshi. and the little boy's name was Lind. he was cute. he had deep blue hair and red eyes. sorta like himself... they spoke for a while and Lily came running by with some books in hre bag. she said 'Mu-Mu' in front of them both... and ran off.. Lind made fun of the name and Suboshi called Lindy-Windy. Lily came back and talked to Suboshi. Kemuri lifted Lind up and he said something about being a viking.
Soon, a little girl and her guardian was appraching. she was cute also... she had black hair and ribbony wings. she wanted to become a witch when she was older. she thought Kemuri was magical... her name is Guinevere. she was also interested in Kemuri's wings. so big and black. she was cute. and she was very energetic. it must have been wonderful to be young~ the guardians talked about random stuff... Kemuri nocticed a park a little bit away from them. so she walked to the guardians and asked if they could go to the park. the guardians seemed scared about Kemuri being the 'kidnapper' at first. but got over it...
so they walked to the park. Lind was impatient about getting there. Guinevere was sort of buried in her thoughts. so Kemuri nudged her lightly out of her thoughts. they arrived at the park. and Lind jumped on the ground and landed on his tummy. he saw a catterpillar. Kemuri and Guinevere kneeled next to him. guinevere put her hand near the catterpillar and wanted it to crawl onto her hand. the 3 talked about butterflies and catterpillars. and Guinevere asked if Kemuri was a butterfly... Kemuri wasn't a butterfly... Guinevere put the catterpillar on the ground and it crawled away...
Kemuri suggested the playground. Lind jumped on the swing on his tummy. and Kemuri had to put him upright on the swing. Guinevere sa and did the same thing. Kemuri had to lift her and put her upright too. he told them how to swing and Lind began to swing his legs. the swing moved and guinevere did the same thing. Kemuri gave Guinevere a push and she swung higer. she seemed alright and Lind too. so Kemuri sat on the last empty swing and swung his legs slowly swinging slowly and quite low. he could get to them if a problem happened faster than waiting for the swing to slow down.
Kemuri was spacing out in his thoughts and stuff when Kotatsu came, Kotatsu is Guin's Guardian, as Suboshi is to Lind and Lily is to himself. Kotatsu said that they had to go home because they had to feed their kitty. which Kotatsu and Guin had at their house. as the little girl and the older lady went out of sight, kemuri stayed on the swing. Lily and Suboshi ame to the park and were sitting on a bench at the side of the park. the two female humans sat there. Subo seemed tired. as they sat there, the two male heralds sat on the swings swinging back and forth. Lily looked up and saw rain clouds above them. Lily pointed ift out to Subo and Subo had suggested they go to Lind and her house which was accompanied by many others.
so, Subo and Lily stood up as Lily called to Kemuri and Lind. Lind tugged on Kemuri's hand as he ran behind the two female humans. kemuri had to walk with his back bent behind Lind not to make him fall or anything. and there it was. the house of Subo and Lind.

One peaceful day... WHEN IS IT EVER PEACEFUL?! D< It was the late evening when Lily came home and came into her room silently. Kemuri watched as she walked up to the second level and plopped down on her bed.
"what's wrong?" he asked looked up to her from the bottom level. he was just sitting and drinking some warm tea.
she walked down slowly and faced the Herald. she looked him in the eye and he did the same with her. she closed her eyes and sadly said, "i'm sorry Kemuri. i'm getting Married this week. my parents old me to get married to the son of a large company. The guy's name is Jonathan. His family promised to give a generous donation if they could find a bride for their 15-year-old son. and, i was 15, so i was eligible. I'm sorry for not being the best Owner I can in these past few months you've been here. in a month, i'll be moving out and am going to live with Jonathan in the house our families paid for evenly. it's an official marrage at George Street's Marrage place. here are the pre-marrital photos." She handed him the photos that were taken earlier that day. "i only came back so i could change into something more 'ladylike' as Jonathan's parents said it. ugh. they piss me off so bad, but i've never seen my mom and dad more happy in such a long time, i'd be sad to disappoint them now." she said.
She walked near to the Closet and opened it revealing her beautiful dress. Kemuri had never seen it before and it was a gorgeous dress. "this was my sisters. but she doesn't fit into it, and she doesn't wear dresses, so i get to wear it." she said as she took it out from the plastic bag that surrounded the dress. the dress was black and it went up to Lily's knees and it was quite puffy. he unzipped it and pulled it over her pants and polo. she turned around and took off her polo. Kemuri turned around and covered his eyes.
"Kemuri. can you zip me up" she said as one hand held the back of the dress and the other tapped Kemuri on the shoulder. he turned around and nodded. she turned around revealingher bare back, since the dress was strapless, he couldn't wear a bra and she had no strapless ones. he zipped it up quickly and looked away. she took off her black pants under and pulled off her colourful socks. she pulled on some white socks with lace at the top and showed Kemuri. she just tapped him on the soulder and he turned around.
"how do i look?" Lily asked the Herald with a gleaming smile.
"gorgeous, Lily." he said with a soft smile that wasn't an immature one.
she hit him softly on the arm and said, "you sound so fake." she giggled as the dress began to fall. she pulled it up before it did. maybe she should wear a bra. she ran and got her bra and put it on under the dress. the straps of the bra showed, but she didn't mind. she pulled off her kiddish clips and wore her pink barrets to match the soft pink part of the black dress.
She hugged him and ran downstairs in her black dress. she shut the door softly behind her and rushed down the stairs. Kemuri fell to his knees, breaking out in tears as his Guardian might be leaving soon.
meanwhile, Lily was downstairs with her parents and her future husband and his family. he had a gorgeous smile and playful attitude, just the kind you wouldn't find from a family with a large company they hold up. Lily smiled sweetly at the people she had met before. Jonathan gestured for her hand. She didn't bat his hand away like she always does to every guy, even the really hawt ones who are loved by almost all the girls.
"you two go out, have fun." Jonathan's mother said.
Lily's mom and dad nodded in agreement. Jonathans dad sat there looking at them both as he drank some wine that Lily's mom offered.
Lily walked to the door as she opened it to lead to the outdoors, it seemed chilly. Jonathan grabbed his jacket and put it over her shoulders. she looked up at his tall figure and smiled. she whispered a 'thank you' he walked out and put his shoes on. Lily waved a farewell to her parents as she headed out, shutting the door behind her.
She put on her nice shoes and looked to see his hand out, being offered to her. she began to remember... when they first met.
(( Note: No, Lily is NOT getting married in real life. and this is not an Abandoning note for Kemuri so yeah... just in case anyone DOES read this besides me... ))

Nothing but a Memory now... It was about two years ago, when Lily was just in the 7th grade and was chosen to help at the public library on the public holiday. She had not known she wasn't alone...
'ugh. why do i have to shelve books on a holiday AND when i'm on my period?' she thought to herself. her head bobbed as she searched for where she had to shelve the book. she got to the shelve that she needed to put it on. she read the labels, it was the top shelf. she reached but she never made it. there was no stool or small chair and nor did she want to carry one with books in her hand. Then all of a sudden, she heard a 'thump thump thump'. it sounded like a ball. it stopped. she walked to the end of the shelve and saw noone. she looked both ways. and no one.
The a HAND touched her shoulder. she turned around and saw a sort of tall chinses guy standing there. he was a bit sweaty. she looked back out and saw a basket ball on the table. maybe that was what she heard. he looked at her oddly.
"are you, um.... Lily by any chance...?" he said in a softish not loud tone.
"Yep" she said with a quick nod. "who're you?" she asked with a smile
"Jonathan." he replied "shelving, eh?" he said. he walked off to the cart of unshelved books and walked offt to search for the home for the first book.
Lily was still. stuck iwth the prediciment. she felt wetness on her underwear and the book shelf was waaay too high for her to reach. she tip-toed to her fullest extent but nothing. a while later, meaning 5 minutes, of standing in the same area with the same book in her hand, she decided to put the rest of the books back on their homes first. she finished with ease, and it all came back to that book. she tried to reach higher than she could. a while after, Jonathan came back.
"Hay. didn't see you running around with your eyes locked on the spine of a book, what's up?" he said in a normal tone.
"nothing." Lily said quickly shaking her head.
"Oh, a book. let me help you." he said as he reached his hand up to grab the book from her hand. she pulled it away and denied his help. he shrugged and walked off slowly.
'why did i reject his help?' she thought to herself.
Then, a gust of wind came from behind her and an arm reached around her waist. she felt as if she fell foreward and the arm pulled her back. A hand took the book from her hand and shoved it in the right spot on the shelf. she turned and saw Jonathan. She was pretend-mad as she burst out in small giggles. she felt a glob fall.
"i have to go to the washroom." she said "be right back. promise!" she zoomed off to the washroom right outside the detectors but in the library still. she went into a stall and locked it quickly. she pulled down her pants and pantys and sat down. she pulled out a pad out of her pocket and fumbled with the stickiness of it. she tipped her old one off and rolled it up. then threw it in the bin for used feminine products. she was one of the earlier ones. she was sad because of that. but it was alright. she dealed with it.
She threw out the wrappers and flushed. she came out releived that she didn't drip that horrid red stuff all over her pantys. she washed her handsand dried. she fixed her hair while was was at it. she walked out and saw Jonathan doing double the books he did before. she ran back in and ran to follow him.
"pass some over." Lily said from behind him.
He stopped walking and handed her 4 measly picture books while he carried a ton of novels and thick hardcover books. Lily didn't care if he wanted to do that all by himself. she walked over to the picture book section and kneeled over in pain. she found each of the books' place and placed them accordingly.
She walked over to the cart with the needed to be shelved books. she saw there were not many books left. she took them all and she held them with both hands. the she looked behind to see a few other carts shoved with books and the books that needed to be checked in that were checked out. she didn't know how to do that but there were still a few other carts to be shelved.
She ran off to shelve quickly so she could spend some time alone at the library or head home and play some online RPGs. she passed jonathan sometimes. he always seemed to pick out the high shelved books and Lily never got one high shelved book. The two were alone in the sort of small-ish large library. There were many people who came by who waved jonathan over. he shook his head at them and continued to help Lily shelve books. Lily saw that the girls glared at her as they saw her pass. they glared at her and giggled evilly. Lily ignored their foolish ways. 'did they want to shelve books that badly?' she thought. she shook her head as she shelved the books.
it had been Hours since they started shelving. it was already 4pm and they got through around 2 carts. they started at around noonish. they had one cart left to shelve. this one was the hard ones since the books were very large and that section was far. The two thought of ways to make it go faster.
"could we roll the cart over to that area and then shelve? they all seem to be in the same area." Lily proposed.
Jonathan nodded and agreed to the idea. they both pushed the heavy cart together. Some girls were watching outside through a window. they whispered and looked like thay laughed evilly. jonathan let go of the cart and Lily pushed too hard and fell forward. Jonathan pointed for them to leave him alone. they wrote a note and put it against the window, it wrote, 'you'd better help that clumsy girl before she gets hurt.' He read it and looked back at Lily. he sighed with a sense of releif. she was laying on the ground with a small tear running down her face.
"aw. there, there. don't cry Lily." he said in a normal but nervous tone. 'ugh. just great, crying's just what i need'. truth is, Jonathan wasn't the best with crying girls, that's why he's always blunt with them.
"i'm... *sniff* not crying..." she replied.
"then why do you have tears?" he asked.
"something got in my eye." she said.
He quickly stood up and blushed. Lily got up too still rubbing her eye. Then, he heard his mobile ring. he picked it up. it was the girl who hated Lily, Karen. her voice rang through the phone,
"You made her crryyy. awww so saaddd. go on, cheer her up, and i'll make everybody go against you. your money, your good looks nor your talent in sports can save you." her voice disappeared. Lily got up onto her feet closing one eye.
"we have to push this cart, right?" she said cheerfully.
'how can she be so damned cheerful when she just got hurt?' he thought. he rolled his eyes with a small sigh. "it's alright, i'll push the cart myself" he said. he pushed the cart with ease to the area they needed to shelve.
4:30pm. the sun was sort of high in the sky. Girls stalked the outer area of the library. Lily felt nervous about this.

Nothing but a Memory now... Lily and Jonathan finished shelving the books that were on the last cart.
"oh, the librarian told me to cut a stack of papers for a class that's coming into one of the rooms tomorrow. i think they're bookmarks for the Little Readers group." she said as they pushed the cart back to where it was.
"i'll help, i don't want to get stalked anyways." he said as he pushed the now dramatically lighter. Lily smiled at the taller boy. He pushed the cart back to where it originally was. He sat down at the table where his basketball was. he picked it up and spun it on his finger.
Lily went to the desk. there was a note atop a LARGE pile of papers. 'Volenteers for December 1st, Please cut with care and thank you for taking your time to doing this.' was written on a note on tp of the stack of papers. They both cut them carefully on the dotted lines. about an hour passed as it began to fall lightly from the sky.
"look. it's snowing." Lily said as she looked up from her cutting.
"meh, whatever." he said emotionless.
Lily subconsiously cut the paper. she cut them alright because of all the cutting she did. Then, the lights flickered. Lily got fairly scared by this. Lily is very sensitive to the dark, she'll scream, cry or even twitch uncontrolibly. The lights flickered and then shut down. Lily looked about and saw jonathan looking about and the shelves of books that were un touched. the heat was off, the lights were off, the alarm system was off.
Jonathan stood up and said, "i'll go look for candles or a flashlight."
Lily stood up too. "i'll go too." she said in a shaky voice.
"no it's too dangerous, you might hit something and get hurt." he said as he guided her back down sitting onto the chair. he patted her on the shoulder and walked off. "don't wander" he told her.
"don't go too far..." she said as her voice drifted into the darkness.
Jonathan walked about and found a cupboard labeled 'safety rations'. "Jonaaathan....?" Lily cried out. Jonathan replied with a loud 'uh-huh?'. Lily began to get really scared. tears started to flow from her eyes. her fear of the dark had gotten the best of her. hhe tried to stop crying but couldn't. Jonathan pulled out his lighter out of his pocket that his best friend Teo shoved in. good thing too. Teo would have got into trouble for taking his dad's lighter and now, Jonathan can use it to light the candles.
He grabbed a bunch, about 5 already been used candles and placed them on the desk. he lit one of them. Lily couldn't see the small flame that he ignited. he stacked the rest and held them all in one hand. he shoved the lighter in his pant pocket and carried the lit one in his free hand. Lily wiped away tears as Jonathan walked to the desk that Lily was at. Lily couldn;t see the small flame that the candle held that was in Jonathan's hand.
Lily mummered something about evil spirits going away and finding a happy place. Jonathan sat down quietly. Lily didn;t notice. he set the candle down and un stacked the rest. he lit them all and then looked over to Lily. she seemed to have stopped muttering. he patted her on the back as she sat up. her sudden movements were a slight shock to Jonathan. she wiped her tears as Jonathan looked at her oddly.
"there there..." he said uncertain. he wasn't the best when it comes to upset girls. that's why he avoided disappointing them even if it costed all his free time to be gone. "Lily...? it's not that dark anymore. there there." he added in his uncertainty. He stroked his fingers through her short, jet black hair. Lily shivered from fear. he put his long arm around her small body frame. she moved closer to him and hugged onto him around hs waist. The impact of Lily hugging him almost made him fall backwards. he was in a bit of a shock. he patted her on the back nervously.
'what if someone comes and sees us like this?' he thought.
For a while, he didn't see Lily move. He looked at her. she seemed to be not moving. He lifted her and put her sitting on his lap. her legs were to one side and her arms were in front of her body. Jonathans arm supported her. tears flowed down her soft face. he watched her sleep peacefully in the candle light. he smiled at her innocence. she breathed long breaths. there was no one at the windows because of the heavy snowfall.
He took out his white MP3 player and started it up. he put the headphones on and listened as he watched Lily in a state of unconciousness. Lily, still asleep, hugged onto Jonathan. he twitched a bit from the approach she had made in her sleep. Jonathan drifted off to sleep also with his arm around her waist and her arms around his neck. They both slept a peaceful sleep.
Lily awoke and she saw black fabric in front of her face. she didn't know what it was. her head was so close that she could smell the smell of the fabric and the person wearing the fabric. it was a mix of colonge and girl's purfume and maybe a bit of eyeshadow and whatever smell. she pushed softly and looked up. there she saw it... Jonathan was right above her. She paniked and fell backwards. Jonathan, feeling the movement of his hand and the lack of weight on his legs, awoke. Lily fell backwards onto the carpetted floor. she lay flat on her back as Jonathan laughed at her prediciment. she looked on his lap, no red spot good.
"you wanna sit some more?" he asked in a giggly charming tone.
Lily shook her head in disagreement. she grabbed a candle and ran to the washroom. she ran into a stall and slammed it shut. she locked the door and set the candle down. she pulled her pants down and sat on the toilet seat. the candle wobbled and fell. Lily screamed as a reflex to the dropping of the candle. Jonathan grabbed a candle and ran into the girls washroom. the candle lit the entire room. Lily blushed as she had to get Jonathan to come 'save' her.
"you alright, i heard you scream." he said in his boring monotone voice.
"nothing... nothing... just the candle fell and yeah..." she replied shakily.
"i'll wait here for you." he said as he stood outside the stall with the candle in his hand.
Lily sighed. she ad to open the wrapper REALLY quietly to not let him know she was on her monthly cycle. she ripped the stained pad off her panty. she stopped and tried to hear his reaction. no reaction... she sighed. she ripped the wrapper of the new one and stuck it on. she did her routine and flushed. she walked out and washed her hands. Jonathan walked over and saw in the sink where her hands were with the water flowing.
"why is there... blood? in the sink?" he asked. "and why is it flowing from your hands?"
"no reason..." she said as she turned around. the sink was still flowing and the back of her shirt got all wet. she turned back around and rinsed her hands and shut the water off. she wiped her hands and noticed her back was wet. 'Ugh! i'm such a dork...' she thought. even in the dim light, he could see the back of Lily's lacey bra. she of course, did not know.
They walked back to the table, Jonathan laughing every now and again. he got over the fact that her hands dripped red stuff that wasn't from her hands. she sits down.
"Is there a draft?" she asks. she feels her back and feels it's wet. she looks about for her sweater, then hits her head on the desk. she left it in her mom's car... Jonathan takes his sweater and pulls it over her head.
"wear it. it might bea bit big but it'll keep you warm til the lights and heat come back." he said in a charming tone.
"won't you be cold?" she asked him as the hoodie went over her head with ease.
"meh, i'm fine..." he said.
Lily wore the sweater with hesitation wondering how she'll get the wet shirt off. she figured a way and took the wet shirt off without taking off the hoodie. he watched her oddly as she struggled with it. he didn't dare go in and try to help her in case she calls him a sexual harasser if he accidentily touches her in places...
Lily set the wet shirt on an extra chair. she sat back down and held his hands. they were cold. "you ARE cold." she said sternly to him.
"not at all." he said quickly as he yanked his hands away. Lily blushed as she moved herself back to her normal sitting postion. She looked through her messanger bag and dug up some gloves and a scarf. she grabbed his hands and put them in her gloves. and she wrapped her scarf around his neck snugly.
They sat in complete silence for a few minutes before the lights flickered on quickly. you could clearly see that Jonathan's pant indeed DID have red spots on them. a small red on in the middle of his left thigh. it was getting dark. it was already 6:30.
"my mom's picking me up at 7. you?" he asked as he gathered his stuff.
"same." she replied as she stood up grabbing her messanger bag along with her. she grabbed her shirt as she did so. he flung the bag behind him hung on one arm as Lily put her messanger bag on. he headed for the door with the supplies they took from the main desk. Lily followed him quickly as she pushed in the chairs.
he set the stuff down as he flicked off the lights. He put the candles back too. Lily flicked off the washroom lights. they both headed out as they locked the door to the library. the community center was empty. they both stood and watched the snow fall slowly to the ground. Lily saw a light behind them, she turned around and saw that it wasn't her mom. it was Jonathan's mom. she was an average looking lady with an average car. she smiled sweetly at Lily and waved. she waved back. Jonathan ran out without looking back.
Lily thought he was gone for sure, but he actually asked his mom to wait a bit for Lily's parents to come pick her up before he left because he was concerned about the 7th grade girl. she stood alone until Jonathan came back. Jonathan stood next to her for a few minutes before Lily's mom came.
"thanks for waiting for my mom to come." she sai with a smile. she ran off into the red van that her mom drove. she waved out the window to the boy as her mom drove off.
"whose sweater is that?" Lily's mom asked.
"a friends. i got my shirt wet so they let me borrow it." Lily said to her mom. her mom nodded as they went home.
The next day, Lily brought the sweater to school, hoping to catch Jonathan and give it back to him. she had washed it and ironed it properly and even folded it. She caught a glimpse of Jonathan a few times either playing some basketball, in class or around the horde of girls. he was alone at his locker. Lily approached him and handed him his sweater. he took it and said a monotone thanks. Lily ran off sort of sad... he didn't seem happy. Lily ignored it and lived on with her life.

Into The Night...
The night was sorta chilly. She pulled over her boy-ish sweater on and gave Jonathans sweater back to him. Lily appreciates the fact that she can get a unisex sweater.
"We're going to the Aquarium, right?" he asked her.
She nodded as she took out the aquarium tickets from under her dress. Jonathan looked at her oddly as she reached under her dress to reveal tickets. She pulled down two black pant legs. She had snuck them on underneath because she disliked dresses. Jonathan nodded at her as he started to walk away. Lily ran after him.
The two arrived at the aquarium, Marine Wonders. Lily dragged onto Jonathan's hand as they went into the building. Lily looked in awe at all the fishies swimming around their tanks. The colourful fish swam here and there beautifully. Jonathan didn't seem to mind people watching them swim in and out through their little fishie lives.
Lily spotted some angel fish in another tank as she walked over to the tank, jonathan followed. He lurked whitin the shadows as he spotted the girls from school, watching the fish with their boyfriends. Lily looked about and saw Jonathan nowhere. she walked through the dark hall as she was snatched into the shadows where no one saw. 'shhh.' a voice told her. she felt nervous but safe. what was this feeling? she looked up and saw Jonathan's face in the dim light. The girls from school and their boyfriends passed.
They both turned just to see a waiter standing there wondering what they were doing. They decided to sit for a while after the commotion. They both ordered a small coffee.
"i've got something to say." Lily said holding her steaming coffee.
"me too" he replied. "you first."
"no you first." she said still holding the coffee
"no it's okay, you first." he said.
" okay. i don't want to marry you." she whispered quietly, nervously.
"me neither." he said.
"really?!" she said with a happy look on her face.
"Really." he nodded. "we're too young, my parents wanted us to 'start a family' right after the wedding." he said.
Lily looked really worried. she was so thankful that she and him had spoken up now and not later, after the wedding. Lily sighed in releif.
"I'm gonna go explore the aquarium" she said happily. she left some money on the table for her drink she ordered. Her coffee was done with a faint lip balm mark left from where she drank from.
She walked off as she got to the door, she looked back to see Jonathan with his head to the table, and his fist on the table too. He seemed sad, but, Lily can't afford to get married for a guy she does not love. She wandered in the Aquarium for a while, watching the fish swim. Oh how she wished it wasn't so hard to say no...
Her little black dress swayed as she walked. she turned the corner, to bump into the girls from school. Lily's glasses fell as she bumped. She was sitting on her behind as she felt her face, no glasses. she looked around for her glasses. As she found her glasses and stood up, she noticed the boyfriends of the girls angry as the girls sat on the floor on their behinds. 'ugh. why do these bad things keep happening to me?' She thought. she gave a small bow and a truthful 'sorry for bumping into you' to the girls and she offered a hand to help the girls up.
They hearlessly swatted away the help Lily offered to them. They got up by themselves as their boyfriends slammed Lily into a wall. 'great...' she thought to herself. she was surprised she could still think while her air pipe was being smooshed onto. She gasped for air as the girls stood around and watched her in paint and suffering.
Jonathan wandered and saw the guys picking on Lily. he hurried over, only to be stopped by the girls.
"oh Jonathan~ this lowlife scum crashed into us on purpose." They said as they pointed to Lily.
Liy gasped for air as she tried to kick the guy away, but she wasn't wearing her running shoes and the black leather shoes had no grip at the bottom whatsoever. Jonathan watched carefully to see how Lily would get out of this mess that he was sure she hadn't gotten into on purpose. The boyfriends of the girls were talking to each other, 'ooh, fiesty.' or 'screw off.' or 'don't you be essing with us.' It was sort of funny to Lily, these Asian guys, being all Ganster and whatnot. She couldn't laugh though. She thought they were acting like girls. She attempted to pull the guy's arm away from her neck and get a solid breath of air. Surprisingly, the guy's grip was majorl strong compared to his body shape.
The guy switched positions and took her in a hold from his chest and his arm. she frantically tried to get free. she was so into trying to get out of this situation taht she didn't notice that Jonathan had arrived. She remembered her best friend had taught her how to get out of that pose. she turned her head to the direction of his elbow and she took a deep breath.
Jonathan knew that was a signal that she was trying to get out of the problem.
"Can't you guys just leave her alone. m' sure she didn't mean any harm." he said as he pushed the girl's away from him as heartless as they swatted Lily's hand away previously.
The male who had caught onto her hadn't realized that she could breath in that hold. Lily breathed silently and pretended to be choking to play an act. She realized if she ha played dead, they might leave her alone, not facing up to their crime because it was a serious crime to murder. Lily stopped to move and made her breathing slow and unnoticible and tried to slow her heartbeat.
She lay on the guy's arm, dead looking. The guy felt her weight on his arm and shoved her on to floor. Lily fell like a rag doll, but didn't get up. she lay as if she was in a coma or dead. The male held her by her collar. and shook Lily. Lily tried her best not to let her anger get the best of her and ruin her playing dead trick.
"Hey, b***h, get up!" The male screamed while another kicked her and one of the girls scoffed at Lily. Lily was furious...
She gathered spit in her mouth and began to foarm spit bubbles from her mouth which made it look disgusting. it also seemed that she was starting to lose her senses or was foaming at the mouth.
They started to get scared. Jonathan ignored Lily as he chuckled. He knew Lily was playing a trick.
"She's almost done for. place the finishing blow." Jonathan called out to the male.
"why don't you?!" The male said as he got pissed off at Jonathan.
"Why should i get to finish the job? you started it. and she's almost dead anyways." Jonathan snapped back at the male.
'Near death?!' the male thought.
"L- L- Let's go..." he said scared.
The gang scrambled away as fast as they could, away from the scene fo the crime they committed.
"It's alright to get up now. and... stop blowing spit bubbles..." Jonthan said as he reached out a hand to help her up.
Lily opened her eyes and saw just Jonathan and the blue ghost like glow behind him from the fish tanks. She got up and wiped the drool from her face. He grinned at her. He was a person who grinned, smiled rarely and was uber nice~
"Let's go home..." Lily said softly.
"Sure." He replied.
The two walked back to Lily's house as they opened the door, they saw Lily's parents and Jonathan's parents enjoying tea.
"Father, Mother, I do not wish to get married." Jonathan said to his parents.
"me neither, mom..." Lily said shyly.
"oh, i'm so sorry if my son pushed his ideas onto you about not getting married." Jonathan's mom said in a soft soothing tone.
"no, i'm sorry my daughter pushed HER ideas to your son." Lily's mom said.
Lily's dad seemed overly calm. He didn't want Lily to marry. He loved Lily dearly because she was the daughter who wasn't interested in guys.
'oh how'd they get so pissed if they find out i gota Herald living in my room...' Lily thought.
"It's no one's fault!" Lily said out. "We have decided on this together and no one pushed any ideas onto each other." she added.
Jonathan nodded.
"we'll leave you alone then. we will still support your company. With such a daughter with backbone, we'd have to support your company." Jonathan's father said.
Jonathan smiled. It was the first time to Lily that it wasn't followed by a chuckle, laugh or grin.
Jonathan and Lily lived their lives, Lily's dad got money to his company and Their parent's weren't on bad terms.
It seemed like heaven.

INTERVENTION
Kemuri's Rushed Past of Nothingness.
When Kemuri was a fallen Herald, a Fortune Teller sacrificed her sacred raven to save his life. He had no memory of what happened before that. The fortune teller named him Kemuri for no apparent reason... she thought it sounded cute. she fed him spirits though he never did get the hang of the taste or feel of it going down his throat. he seemed to have grown a while and his hair changing from a snowy white to a deepish blue. the tips of his hair were getting deeper in colour. His wings, at the messanger reborn stage, still had not grown out. The fortune teller was worried that the sacrifice was not enough to let the Herald lead a good life without wings.
The fortune teller was under a lot of stress as Kemuri entered his child stage. she fed him regularly in good doses, but she wouldn't eat much herself. Kemuri's wings budded in a beautiful navy blue. the fortune teller was quite fragile by this time. Kemuri would always do the errands without complaints or hesitation. This wasn't so bad for the young herald. The other fortune tellers did not appreciate him in their neighbourhood. they whispered when he passed. 'look, theres that retarded kid' or 'shh. don't stare, no matter how odd he is'. he wasn't ugly or anything, quite cute for a little boy.
Everyday, he'd have to get some fruits from a grove of fruit trees and fruit plants. he'd gather a bunch, enough for a day. The fortune teller had taught him how to tell good, juicy fruits from unripe- sour fruits. he'd always pick the average ones that were still sweet but not to they were the best in the grove. He'd take a straw basket to gather them. He did this every single day, but the fortune teller would never eat more than an apple or a pear.
Kemuri ran back but he was stopped by some neighbour boys.
"oh, hi." Kemuri said politely with a smile as he was always taught.
They didn't reply. they shoved him and Kemuri fell back onto his backside. he dropped all the fruits that he had gathered. they started to kick him at random. one boy picked up a fruit and squished the juice on him. they ran off laughing as they left him there with his arms stained in blood and his legs bruised. he sat up, looking at his arms. he had never seen blood before. The sun was now high in the sky, around 9 in the morning.
A girl came and picked up the fruits. she dropped them lightly into the straw basket. she noticed the bleeding boy. she quickly picked up the frits and put them in the basket. she didn't pick up the squished ones. she held the basket as she walked over to him.
"are these yours?" she asked.
"yes, thank you for picking them up." he replied as he got to his feet.
"you seem hurt." she said softly to him reaching to his arm.
"this is nothing" he said as he let her touch his bloody arm.
she handed him his basket of fruits. he took the basket gently and took a perfectly fine apple out.
"you like apples?" he asked as he handed her the apple.
"yes" she said. "i'm Sophia. you?" she asked as kemuri threw her the apple. she caught it.
"i'm Kemuri." he said.
She started to walk in the direction of where the fortune teller lived that takes care of Kemuri. Kemuri follows her.
"you don't have to follow me" she said to Kemuri.
"i live over there." he said.
"oh." she said as she continued to walk and he followed. they walked in silence. Sohpia seemed to be around 17 or 18 of age and dressed in a magnificent lolita dress in a black with prismy colour. she had short-ish hair that was naturally light brown. they were tied in two pigtails with some still down. her bangs were pulled back and hooked behind her ears.
"well, this is my stop, see ya later Kemuri." she said as she opened her tent and went into the tent that she lived in. Kemuri walked a few more minutes and arrived at the tent that the fortune teller he lived with lived at. he went in with the fruits. the fortune teller was reading a novel, it was quite a thick novel. he snuck into the area with running water and washed off the blood from his hands. the fortune teller was too sly for the young one.
"why are your arms bleeding, sweetheart?" she asked holding one of his hands out so she could see. his face winced as she grabbed his arm. She put it down and grabed a roll of bandages and a tube of cold cream. she rubbed the cream on his arm lightly but still enough that it would soak in. she wrapped his arms as he attempted to not scream in pain. she tied the end of the bandages.
"There, not tell mommy what happened, honey." she said holding his shoulders lightly while kneeling. Kemuri shook his head.
"nothing happened mommie" he said.
"then why the bleeding hands and bruises on youe legs?" she asked. he forgot to cover up the bruises on his legs that were from the kicking.
he shook his head again. "nothing happened. really." he smiled as he broke free and grabbed an apple. he washed it and handed it to her. "i picked fruit. here."he said handing it to her. She swatted it away with impatience.
"i mean it. what. happened." she asked.
"i told you! nothing happened!" he said as he shook off the fortune teller violently and ran out of the tent. he ran into the grove and kneeled there. Sophia was there.
"hey, you got those wounds bandaged up." She said with a smile.
Kemuri pouted at her. "what's wrong Kemuri?" she asked him as she walked over to the young Herald. of course she hadn't a clue why he was bleeding or whatnot, but she knew a broken heart always needs a little help healing.
"i got in a fight with mommy." he said softly. he felt he could freely talk to Sophia even though he had just met her.
"why?" she asked softly, stroking his soft navy hair.
"i wouldn't tell her that the neighbour boys beat me up. i got angry at her and ran out. i guess it was my own fault because i didn't tell her in the first place and got angry when she didn't do anything to me." he said hugging his knees close to him.
"why did they beat you up?" she said continuing to stroke his hair.
"they don't like me. no one does. though mommy is quite social, well, she used to be until i came along..." he drifted off near the end.
"i think you should appologize if you think you did wrong." she said softly. she stood up and walked away into the distance towards her house.
Kemuri ran after her and didn't see her. he went back into the tent and ran and hugged the fortune teller. "i am sorry mommy" he cried to her. she hugged him.
"there there, you don't have to tell me. you can if you want." she said softly. he told her everything. the fortune teller got a bit worried. she didn't show the young one that she was, or else he'd stop going out and become anti-social.
The fortune teller kept feeding Kemuri spirits. he budded into a teen not long after. his scars were gone from the countless times the children used to pick on him. they still do, but not as much seeing that he's big and can hurt them. but he never did hurt them. He thought to himself, 'i need a job.'
He and Sophia had long not met, they never bumped into each other or anything, maybe they did but he didn't recognize her. His hair had grown out and now at waist length. he took really good care of it for very little cost. he bought good shampoo at low prices. He exited the living quarters before the fortune teller was awake and walked to the city. the rustle and bustle of city life wasn't suited for Kemuri, there was pollution and crowded places. no one stared at him though even with his deep navy blue wings. they other fortune tellers said it was bad luck for his mom to carry around a raven and now to make it into a well-oiled teenager?
Kemuri walked and saw many stores and places, but none seemed to fit what he wanted to do. he didn't know what he wanted to do. he''d just wander and see what arroused his interests. he walked for a bit more. he had left at around 7 in the morning and it was nearing 10AM now. he picked up the pace he walked at and looked quickly at the stores.
He came across a small cafe. it was a half-night-club sort of thing. 'meh, whatever. better than nothing' he thought as he entered the cafe/bar. the place reeked of beer but not smoke, smoking was prohibited in the cafe/bar, which was pretty good. He asked a waiter dressed in a black and white uniform where he could see who was hiring people. The waiter smiled sweetly, like a girl, and showed him the way. he opened a door leading him into a room.
Kemuri walked in carefully and looked about the brightly lit room. there was a lady sitting on a couch with a cup of tea. her hair was down and she had a red suit and a skirt on. her socks were pulled up to her knees and her ruby shoes gleamed. her light brown hair wasn't straight but wasn't REALLY wavy either. her face was clear of blemishes and she seemed only in her mid 20s.
"Is this where i can get hired to work at this cafe?" he asked
"Resume?" she spoke quick without hesitation.
"wha?"
"a resume. here, scribble one up quickly." she said giving him the cafe resume form. he took it and took a pen from his pocket. he filled up his name, phone number, address, likes, dislikes, age, why he should be chosen and on. he signed the bottom and handed it back to the lady. she read it over real quick and shoved it in the Emploees folder.
"welcome aboard. you can go in the back and change into your new uniform. The others will tell you what to change into. just say, the Lolita Cafe christmas special uniform and someone named Charlie will know. ANDY TAKE OFF THE HELP WANTED SIGN! i'm Emile, the Manager." she said as she yelled the last part out to the outside. she smiled as he smiled nervously back. she sipped her tea and said, "oh yes, the employees area is just outside and you'll see a door that says, employees only. so yea. it's there." she said as she sipped her tea again. Kemuri nodded and exited the office
He entered the backroom as he saw an area with lockers and stuff you'd see in a normal backroom. he saw two doors, one that had the male washroom sign and the other with the female washroom sign. he walked into the male one and saw all these guys changing.
"um... hi. i'm new and i was wondering what the 'Lolita Cafe Christmas Special Uniform' was..." he said without hesitation into the room. his shyness has lifted after seeing all these people that were all males. there were only about 3 or 4 males here. "are there only you guys as the only guys working here?" he asked. They nodded... Kemuri nodded back slowly.
A guy walked up to him and said, "looking for the christmas special uniform eh? here." he said handing him a hanger with a uniform on it.
"you want me... to wear this...?" he asked.
The brown haired male nodded. he seemed not much older that around 18 and his eyes as blue as the sea, his hair brown as the bark on a tree. his hair was layered and gelled up in spikes. Kemuri sighed as he reached for the uniform and took it from the male.
"name's Charlie, nice to have you with us." He said as he patted Kemuri on the back.
"um... where can i change?" Kemuri asked.
"right here." Charlie replied.
"here..? in front of all these people?" he said as he turned to the other males in the christmas night uniform. he sighed as he took off his shirt as pulled on the red with white fur lining it over his head. The shirt was majorly short and just about covered half his torso. He took his pants off quickly and covered his boxers as he wore the red pants with white fur trimming. The other male workers in the room gave him a thumbs up and a nice complement. He looked at himself in the mirror and saw it didn't look half bad.
Charles handed him a white apron. "Finishing touch." he said as he gave Kemuri a wink. Kemuri took it with a small back notebook and beautifully embrodered pen on it. he tied it around his waist with a beautiful bow on the back. They all finished changing and gave him a smile, wink or thumbs up.
He walked out and saw some girls standing outside, wearing skirta that went up to their knees and the same shirt that only covered half the torso. They were all wearing a snowy white apron too, just like him and the other male employees. The lady came out of her office and pushed Kemuri in front of all the employees.
"Alright everybody. Listen up. Today, Kemuri will be joining our crew today." The lady said.
They all nodded with warm greetings.
"okay. get to work." Emile said as she clapped her hands twice.
Everybody walked off, changing everything to open. then, a girl approached Kemuri. She seemed familiar. She hugged him as she muttered something about not seeing him in so long. Kemuri was confused.
"don't you remember? Sophie?" She said with a sweet tone.
"oh! i remember you. it's been so long since i've wseen you. you seem to be doing good for yourself." He said with a chuckle.
"you seem to have grown your hair out." She replied back.
"Sophie. Kemuri. get to work, there are tables that need to be waited at" Emile snapped at the two.
So the two ran off to the tables that were ready for ordering. Kemuri madly scibbled away as the people ordered. He scurried to the chef window and handed in his form like all the other waiters and waitresses. he yelled a thanks into the kitchen as the chefs smiled and nodded.
The chefs made the orders quickly as they handed it to Kemuri to speed them off to their tables. Kemuri worked with extreme care. Everybody left a bit of a tip for the employees. They left happy.
The days passed and passed. Then, the help wanted sign went up again... Kemuri asked Sophie why it was put up, there were enough people. she shrugged at his question as she was confused too.
"We're sorry to anounce that one of or employees had to leave urgently and will not be coming back." Emile's voice boomed to the staff. "We are searching for another Waiter or Waitress. Thank you and keep up the good work." She ended as she walked off, her high heels clicking on the floor of the Cafe.
Everybody burst into whispers. "AND GET TO WORK!" Emile said. Everybody scrambled and got to work. The sun set as Kemuri and Sophie were taking the night shift also for extra cash. There were more teenagers during the night, on dates, singing for 'open-mic-time' which was from 10pm-12am which was when the Cafe/Bar was going to close.
"Sophie, please take the trash out" Emile said as she worked hard too, since Kemuri and Sophie were the only two working night shift. Sohpipe replied to Emile with a nod as she took the two larde garbage bags, one in each hand and pushed the push door to lead outside, into the warm summery air. Little did Kemuri know, this was the last time he'd see Sophie's innocent self ever again...
"Hey babe" Spoke a male voice. Sophie still had the garbage bags in her hands and the Uniform still on. The individual seemed to be about his mid 20s and he seemed drunk. Sophie fell back onto the garbage and the male assualted her as he got on top of the girl. Sophie screamed.
"not gonna help." The male said. He started to rip at her top, revealing her frilly pink bra. Kemuri heard the scream faintly. He quickly rushed outside and turned to get to the garbage place and saw the male ripping at Sophie's uniform, showing her undergarments and letting her hair down, spreaded around her. Sophie was traumatized. The male didn't hear Kemuri, probably because of the alcohol he was drinking.
Kemuri raised his hand and hit the male with the wine bottle and knocked the man out, not yet killing him or making his head bleed. probably a minor headache afterwards but nothing more. Kemuri carried Sophie in his arms, with his shirt covering her upper half. They went in and Emile asked what happened.
Kemuri explained that a drunk b*****d assaulted Sophie. Sophie had cried herself to sleep.
The next day, Sophie left the cafe and Kemuri quit after he found out she had quitted too. He returned the uniform and got his last paycheck from the cafe. He now had a bit of cash, to search for a lost friend... He wandered back to the gypsy camp and wandered. He walked to Sophie's tent and looked in. It was dark inside, but he could see with the natural light. He saw that all of Sophie's things were gone and she wasn't inside. But a note...
'Dear Kemuri,
Thank you for everything. I would have never lived this type of life without you. I would have probably been raped by now if it weren't for you. I hank you with my heart and soul. I am afraid i have to leave this campsite. And you need not find me, for i am in a better place now... Don't find me, I am happy now. Not as happy as when i was with you, but happy. I will watch over you Kemuri...
- Sophie.'
Kemuri fell to his knees crying his eyes out. He decided to leave right before the Summber Masquerade started, the festivities would just get him more down... He packed his things before dawn and left to live in the forest. he packed an extra pair of clothes, for when he finds another person as a guardian, he'd look pretty for them. He kissed the fortune teller on the face before he set out.
--- One Masquerade later ---
Kemuri was framed for being a kidnapper. The young girl looked exactly like sophie and He thought that she was a reincarnated Sophie. When the mother said to leave Kemuri alone, he felt releived. He walked back to his own little tent away from the gypsies. He had realized he saw the Fortune teller beyond the crowd, she seemed disappointed in him...
He got up and looked around for the opening in the trees. 'gotta find the fortune teller and tell her...' He thought as he located the opening and ran out. He ran past trees and bushes, getting twigs in his hair. He tripped and fell, he arrived at the open space where the Gypsies were... All left were flyers, candy bits and maybe some of his feathers that have been left behind, to not arouse bad memories... Everyone had left. He pulled a twig from his hair and dropped it. he wiped his head of anything in his hair.
That was when he saw a girl wearing a striped yellow polo. He snuck up behind her and basically followed her.
And the new life of Kemuri begins!

A Day In Town... Alone?
Lily dragged Kemuri off to the mall, where he were to get new clothes. "What's wrong with the clothes i have?" Kemuri protested. Lily told him they were old and tauny. He had been wearing them since the summer masquerade. He washed them often though. He had washed them once every 3 days, so they don't stink, but his pants were starting to fade and his shirt was starting to gather lint balls that wouldn't come off.
"fine, fine fine..." He muttered as he had realized these things just now. Lily was delighted! She dragged him off to the mall to get some new clothes. Kemuri exited from the window of course. And Lily went through the front door. Her mom was in the kitchen making dinner even though it was only noon on a perfectly sunny sunday.
One bus ride later, They arrived at the large mall. Kemuri didn't like the girly stores, but Lily dragged him into them anyways. Lily didn't know what clothes would fit Kemuri, he was almost a head-and-a-half taller than her. And she was 150-something which was on the short side for a 14 year old... He was almost 175cm. Lily took Kemuri into West49 which had skater clothes. which Lily thought would look quite good on Kemuri. It sucked for Kemuri and Lily since Lily was low on funds and everything at west49 was... expensive. and out of price range for Lily.
They moved on and went into some other stores. Everywhere was expensive. though one place was on 'sale' it wasn't really a sale, it was a place with expensive stuff and called' deducted' and it was still more expensive than the other places. As the two were rummaging through Old Navy, Kemuri's stomach growled softly. Lily heard this very rarely since Kemuri would always sneak some small things to eat.
"Okay, Let's go eat~" Lily said.
he nodded to her. Kemuri had never noticed, but Lily dressed especially nice today. She didn't wear her normal polo and black pants, she wore bell-bottom jeans and short black boots. Her light teal shirt, lined with sequins on the front. the shirt was a t-shirt and it looked quite nice for this sunny day.
"Come on, we'll never get to eat if you just stand there~" She said to him.
"right!" he said as he followed after her.
The two set off to the food court to find something to eat. Kemuri was surprised at all the people at the food court. As Kemuri was in awe, Lily had already found a table to sit at. Kemuri quickly walked over, squishing past people to get to where Lily was. She smiled at him.
"now, you sit here while i go buy something to eat." She said to him, pointing to the chair. Kemuri sat down without complaint, in case of Lily getting angry at him. She was in a good mood and he didn't want to kill her happiness. Lily walked off to purchese food while Kemuri sat in silence, thinking about his clothes. 'Where DID i get my clothes? i know the fortuneteller didn't give these to me. i outgrew her clothes long time ago.' he thought to himself.
Deep in thought, he hadn't heard the whispers from some girls from Lily's school. amazingly, they were at the same mall at the same place at the same time... Kemuri played with his hair. 'ugh, i really gotta wash my hair today. i haven't in days and it reeks.' he thought as the girls from Lily's school approached him. There were 3 of them, Shannon, Lori and Erica.
Shannon began to try to sweet talk Kemuri. "Hey, is this spot free?" she pointed to the table next to the one Kemuri was sitting at.
"i don't think anyone is sitting there, so go ahead." he said softly with a smile as he didn't even look at them. He was braiding his hair, it was beginning to get long again, like when he was a teenager, and not an adult yet. The 3 girls giggled and sat down with their food. They all stared at him and whispered about how hot Kemuri looks.
"oh my god he's such a hottie!" Lori said to Shannon and Erica.
"i know!" Erica replied
"i wonder if he's with anyone. i call first dibs on him." Shannon said.
"Why do you get dibs on him?!" Erica and Lori said.
"because i said so. and you guys already have boyfriends" Shannon said.
"hey, you have one too!" Lori said.
"Yea!" Erica added.
"Who said he was my boyfriend?" Shannon said.
Lori and Erica got scared, Shannon had been close to Jonathan for quite some time too. Lily had seen this around school and the two were convincing too. Kemuri took apart his braid as he heard Lily returning. Lily squished through the crowd to get back to the table. In her hands were a tray. on that tray was a paper bag, a cup of soda drink and a packet of fries. She plopped herself down on the chair next to Kemuri, in between him and the 3 girls from Lily's school. 'ugh, them...' Lily thought to herself.
"Well, dig in, there's 3 tacos, two for you and one for me, and some fries and a drink. it's iced tea." she said. She pulled out a taco and set it in front of Kemuri. He opened it up as he looked at it oddly. He hadn't eaten a 'taco' before this. He picked it up to eat but everything inside came out. Lily had folded hers neater and she gave it to him as she slide the one he spilled away from him.
"eat neater, you're not 6 anymore." she scolded him in a laughy tone.
"hey, isn't she from our school?" Erica said, pointing to Lily.
"Yeeeaa." Lori said.
"She's that girl who was with Jonathan at the Aquarium." Shannon said.
"Really?!" The two said in unison.
Shannon nodded as she took a fry from her tray and ate it.
"I can't beleive she is hogging such a hot guy." Shannon added.
Kemuri nodded as he held onto the one Lily handed to him. He ate it neatly as Lily wrapped the one he screwed up and began to finish it off. Kemuri looked over at Lily as she was eating the one he had broke and spilled the insides out. Lily finished hers as she began to make the last one for Kemuri.
Kemuri swalloed his bit of taco, and wanted to talk before Lily shoved a taco in front of him. He picked it up and put it in front of Lily's face. "take a bite, i won't be able to finish it~" he said to her with a grin. Lily shook her head with a soft nuh-uh. "You eat first and i'll finish it after you."
"nuu~~ i'll get angry at you if you don't take a bite. come on, take a bite, it's only a bite~" Kemuri said in a fake angry tone.
"ew, look at them, they're like a couple~~" Shannon said to Erica and Lori in a loud enough tone that Lily and Kemuri could hear. Kemuri's face turned beet red and was frozen in his spot. Lily was pissed at the girls. Lily took a medium sized bite out of the taco. "mkay, you eat the rest~" She said as she chewed the taco. Kemuri nodded as he ate the remainder of the taco. Lily picked up the drink and drank a bit.
"Here, have a drink." she said as she held the drink out to him. He moved close and drank it.
"ugh, how unhygenic" Erica said
"yea!" Lori said, agreeing to her.
"come on Kemuri, we should hurry up and finish eati--" Lily was cut off.
"HIII!!" Vicky, Lily's best friend said as she had nearly pounced on Lily. "Don't mind if i so sit here. lily nee nee~" She said gesturing Lily to get closer. Lily got closer.
"you do know those bitches are sitting beside you and whos the hot guy? i thought you weren't into guys~" She whispered to Lily
"I know they're beside us, gotta hurry to leave, play along." Lily whispered as she moved back.
"Kemuri, Vicky. Vicky, Kemuri" Lily said, giving a quick simple introduction.
"nice to meet you Kemuri." Vicky said as she helped herself to Lily and Kemuri's fries.
Lily picked up the drink as she finished it off. "lets hurry, Kemuri, i don't want to get home so late." Lily said.
"What're you two looking for? i'll help~ i got nothing to do anyways." Vicky said. "And it's rare to get a chance to be shopping with such a hot guy!!" She said aloud.
"We're looking for clothes for Kemuri. but not expensive ones, got a small budget." Lily said. Kemur watched at the two girls talked. He finished the fries aand threw the garbage away. Lily and Vicky were standing, waiting for Kemuri. "oh, i know a great store with pretty un-expensive guy clothes for such a tall guy like himself."
Vicky was pretty tall herself. Vicky was 160, a centimeter more or less, but she was taller than Lily. Vicky dragged Lily through the mall, and everywhere Kemuri turned, he saw those 3 girls, Shannon, Erica and Lori. They seemed to be stalking the 3. Vicky and Lily both noticed them following them. 'damn, i knew it was a bad idea to shop today.' Lily thought. Vicky took them into the store called, 'Underground Heroes' which was sort of odd since the store was on the second floor. They were having a sale on Jeans and they were only about 15 dollars a pair. Plus 5 dollars off because Vicky had a coupon she never got around to using.
"Kemuri go try these on" Lily and Vicky said as they handed him a big pile of clothes. The store lady asked him how many items and he said 15. The Lady gave him a sign with 15 on it and went into a stall. Lily and vicky sat right outside the stall. "come on~ we wanna see~" Vicky said, rushing the Herald. "coming coming!" Kemuri said as he did up the button on the jeans and pulled the shirt over his head.
He came out wearing the tight, straight jeans and deep green shirt. Both girls shook their head.
He went back to change into something else.
black t-shirt with black pants? nuh-uh.
Red t-shirt with blue jeans? shirt, too bright. no.
loose jeans with a deep red t-shirt? alllmost..
Black jeans with the same deep-red t-shirt? Pretty good! Lily held onto this.
Green t-shirt with blue jeans? ew! no! duh no!
The only thing they bought was the deep red t-shirt and the black jeans that went in at the knees and out again. also it was perfect length. This would have costed them around 40 dollars but there was a sale so it costed them 30 dollars but Vicky had a coupon, so it costed them 25 dollars. Kemuri held onto the bag with the clothes in it.
"how about you ditch those losers and hang with us?" Shannon said to Kemuri. Vicky and Lily looked back to see the 3 girls ganging up on Kemuri, trying to persuade him into going with them. Lily and Vicky could clearly say they were the spoiled type and they thought they could take Kemuri away, eaaily.
"but, i'm hanging with the coolest people around. Why would i degrade myself hanging with spoiled sluts like you?" Kemuri said giving them a cold, heartless glare.
Lily and vicky laughed at Kemuri came back to them two with a smile. The 3 girls got pissed off and decided to be violent. Shannon went over and slapped Lily right across the face. Vicky got really pissed off at this, hitting of her best friend. "Hey, if you've got somethng to say, say it, don't take it out on innocent people! If Kemuri doesn't want to go with you, he doesn't have to!" Vicky yelled this at the top of her lungs at Shannon. Lilywiped her face with her arm.
"Are you alright Lily?" Kemuri asked softly.
Lily nodded, her face red from the contact between her face and Shannon's hand.
